Wow, this would great if true. Hard to believe we'd actually win a trade potentially haha.

I doubt we'd try to get Deng in that 3 way though, but we could still use Chandler to protect Jefferson. Then take Evans (or Curry, though I hope not him but apparently we like both) at 6 and Clark or Johnson (if Earl's not there) at 14.

Too much money with JRich, No??

Nash
Deng
JRich
Jefferson

I think Nash, LB, Hill, JRich, and Jefferson is a good mix for now and the future, plus the 14 and 6, WOW!!

I'd hit it. Get Jefferson and grab Jordan Hill with #6. Suns' Front line re-established.

Yeah, like I said, apparently, we like both Evans and Curry. I'd prefer Evans, because he's long, athletic, handle the ball like a PG, and can play defense. Curry to me is just a shooter, and I just don't like his potential. But taking a SG makes sense because I don't see J-Rich as a mainstay in the future.

We can't lose either way.

I feel like I do when I imagine hitting the lotto, knowing that I am only fantasing, because i know it won't happen, then reality set in at 7:30.

Al would only be good at C in our system, so we wouldnt plan on keeping him and shaq, and we desperately need a PF if amare was to go so the aforementioned shaq to the bulls deal, or shaq to anyone for a PF would most certainly have to be a followup deal in the suns minds

I don't know how legit this rumor is but I know that Minnesota is going to do something big because the GM David Kahn said so. If I'M a Wolves fan I would be concerned here is quote for why Kahn got rid of Mchale ,He said he felt it would have been "difficult" to place McHale in the middle of changes that will come in remaking a roster McHale had assembled," Now this means that Kahn is going to make big changes to Minnesota's line up and didn't want Mchale to be in the line of fire when it hapened. There GM is about to do something big and that is never good especially since Minnesota doesn't need to do anything major. The trade reported by an NBA excutive to a Boston reporter seems to be more than smoke if you add the quote made by David Kahn the day he fired Mchale as coach . Whether or notthe trade happens exactly as reported is another thing, That trade would be risky for both sides more so the wolves but they are over the cap and since they aren't making the playoffs maybe the GM has to get them under the cap who knows? Next THursday just got a whole lot more interesting!

Amare won't sign an extension in Minnesota. So save your energy on this topic.

I don't think Amare cares where he plays as long as he's the man. Didn't he say he would be happy playing anywhere before? If goes to the Wolves he would be the star player of that team and he should be happy.

Trust me when I say this; Amare's ego is much too big to play in Minnesota. The guy wants to be in a big market because he puts himself in the same category as Lebron, Kobe, and Wade. If he doesn’t sign an extension with the Suns, I can bet any money that he will play in New York at some point.

Maybe I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens, hope this is true though...
